Mythical Beasts of Mexican Painter and Street Artist Curiot (20 pictures)
Painter and street artist Curiot (Favio Martinez) creates vibrant mythical beasts blending human and animal forms while alluding to a number of Mexican traditions (geometric designs, Day of the Dead styles, myths and legends, and tribal tinges). His characters seem to exist outside of time, and possess so much magnetism that the artist’s compositions maintain a certain vibrancy even in the absence of any background elements.
The Mexico-city based artist grew up in the United States but moved back to Mexico a decade ago.
